According to Electrum Wallet creator Thomas Voegtlin and nostr:npub1ej493cmun8y9h3082spg5uvt63jgtewneve526g7e2urca2afrxqm3ndrm, it is more secure to run a full Bitcoin Core node on a clean and single-purpose Linux laptop than to buy a hardware wallet.

Who is Martin Habovstiak and what does he do in Bitcoin?

First of all, he is the maintainer of the Rust Bitcoin repository on GitHub. He also co-founded @paralelnapolis in Bratislava and coded @firefish_io, a Bitcoin-backed lending service.

Currently, Martin is looking for new projects on which he can contribute and is interested in doing some work in the cryptoanarchy side of Debian.

Firefish is a lending protocol built on Bitcoin, that’s mostly coded by Rust developer Martin Habovstiak.

It leverages the power of 3-of-4 multisig in order to connect the lender with the borrower through 2 neural oracles.

Through game theory, Firefish accomplishes what BlockFi used to do – but in a decentralized way.

Understanding why Bitcoin exists and what it accomplishes for payments is the most important part of everyone’s journey.

Though I discovered Bitcoin in 2013, I thought it was a stupid idea because I did not understand the purpose of the invention and had common concerns about it.

I only really gave it a chance when the market proved me (and the media outlets I was reading at the time) wrong. This is why I created the Breaking FUD magazine: to help others not go through the same time-consuming process and speed up their financial liberation.

In S14 E6 of the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, Mike in Space explains what Bitcoin STAMPs are, why he created this naming convention, how encoding is different from uploading files to the blockchain, what permanence means, and whether or not these STAMPs are an attack on Bitcoin 🙃
